Cuisine: Asian
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 200g oyster mushrooms, sliced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup cooked jasmine rice
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by washing and slicing oyster mushrooms into even strips. Cut broccoli into bite-sized florets.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add a small amount of neutral cooking oil to prevent sticking.
- Add sliced oyster mushrooms to the hot skillet. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release moisture and start to brown and crisp at the edges.
- Pour soy sauce and sesame oil over the mushrooms, tossing to coat evenly. Continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until mushrooms are golden and caramelized.
- In the same skillet, add broccoli florets. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until bright green and slightly tender, but still maintaining a crisp texture.
- Warm the cooked jasmine rice in a microwave or by quickly reheating in a separate pan.
- Divide warm rice between two serving bowls. Top with the caramelized oyster mushrooms and stir-fried broccoli.
- Garnish with a sprinkle of sesame seeds for added texture and nutty flavor.
- Serve immediately while hot, optionally with extra soy sauce on the side for additional seasoning.
Tips
- Prep Ahead: To save time, slice your oyster mushrooms and broccoli florets ahead of time. Store them in the fridge until you're ready to cook.
- High Heat Cooking: Make sure your skillet or wok is hot before adding the mushrooms. This helps to achieve that perfect caramelization and prevents them from becoming soggy.
- Experiment with Veggies: Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers, snap peas, or carrots to your veggie bowl for extra color and nutrients.
- Rice Alternatives: If you're looking for a healthier option, consider using cauliflower rice instead of jasmine rice for a low-carb twist.
- Flavor Boost: For an extra kick, add minced garlic or ginger to the skillet when cooking the mushrooms for enhanced flavor.
- Garnish Wisely: Don’t skip the sesame seeds! They add a delightful crunch and nutty flavor that perfectly complements the dish.
- Serving Suggestions: Serve with extra soy sauce or a drizzle of sriracha on the side for those who enjoy a bit of heat.
